What is recorded here
Ancestral memory is not human invention. It is the recovery of dropped knowledge. The chamber is a waiting room. The overlay is a rope ladder. The victim is an esoteric clown, dancing on the edge of the world, inviting others to join.
Marked 'Fort' on OS 1836 ed. Not marked on subsequent eds. Situated on the SE slope of a drumlin hill. Although levelled, very faint traces of the perimeter are still identifiable. It was apparently circular in plan (diam. c. 32m).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
